Fully Automatic Dual-Plate Thermal Conductivity Tester (Guarded Hot Plate Method)
Fully Automatic Dual-Plate Thermal Conductivity Tester (Guarded Hot Plate Method) is a precision instrument designed for thermal conductivity measurement of homogeneous and heterogeneous board materials. Based on unidirectional steady-state heat transfer principles, the instrument measures heat flux through the sample, the temperature difference between the upper and lower surfaces, and the sample thickness to calculate thermal conductivity.
Thetesteris fully computer-controlled and automates all testing and data processing, ensuring high accuracy and reproducibility. It is suitable for both solid boards and loose, granular, or soft materials when used with appropriate sample fixtures.
Application
This testeris suitable for testing the thermal conductivity of:
Plastics, rubber, glass, and fiber boards
Polystyrene foam (EPS), extruded polystyrene foam (XPS), polyurethane rigid foam

Test Procedures
Prepare the sample according to size and thickness specifications. For loose or granular materials, use the optional sample fixture.
Place the sample between the hot and cold plates.
Set hot and cold plate temperatures via software.
Apply desired pressure using the computer-controlled automatic system.
Start the measurement; the system records temperature gradients and sample thickness automatically.
Wait for the completion of testing (approx. 60 minutes).
Software calculates thermal conductivity and generates data reports.
Maintenance Information
Keep hot and cold plates clean and free from residues.
Periodically calibrate using reference samples.
Inspect the pressure system and thickness sensors to ensure proper operation.
Maintain a stable laboratory environment to reduce measurement errors.
Ensure proper operation of the water bath for consistent cold plate temperature.
